We already knew that X Factor's Chloe Mafia had committed crimes against mascara, but it turns out her past is actually a little more serious.
Apparently the 19 year old singer, who scraped through on Sunday night's show, got up to all sorts of extreme badness when she was younger and has been arrested around 140 times. Which is, well, rather a lot.
During Chloe's first date with boyfriend (and father of her daughter Destiny, who they've nicknamed "Tiny Temper") Ian Hough (no relation to Derek, we assume) in her home town of Wakefield when she was just 13, she was nearly killed in a 110mph crash in a stolen car.
She's also alleged to have taken part in street robberies and has been tagged (not in the Facebook sense), placed under curfew and banned from the town centre. At one point, she and Ian were even banned from contacting each other... despite the fact that they lived together.
"We called him ‘Hustler’ and her ‘Bad girl'," says a local friend. "They loved their nicknames so much they even got tattoos of them.
When they crashed in that stolen car she was 13 and he was 15. The police said they were lucky to be alive."She was much younger then and forever being caught by the cops for all sorts."They mainly got caught for breaking their probation and bail conditions.
"They were told they could not see each other and were banned from the city centre, they were given curfews and even tagged together. But the problem was they lived together and were addicted to each other."But things changed when they had a kid together. Since Destiny was born two years ago they've turned over a relative new leaf. "They've split but are still really good friends."
Aww, how romantic... is what we feel like we should say in case anyone beats us up.
A lady at the X Factor says "We were unaware of any convictions.”
Well, they are now.
